We have the same due date. I’m over here feeling like a bomb too

Absolutely nothing but induction. I'm 39 weeks tomorrow and have my last obgyn appointment before induction on Thursday and I have been doing everything for weeks already. The raspberry leaf tea twice a day, yoga ball, walking, curb walking, stretches. Nothing is working. Wishing you the best of luck!

I pumped a full half hour to collect colostrum for both of my kids. Both times, I went into labor the same night.

i didn’t do anything honestly besides sex until the night before i gave birth and then i did dilation station and curb walked a little and fell asleep with my leg high up on my fiancé just like you would for mile circuit all just the one night and then next morning i started active labor at 3am and it progressed and i gave birth by 6:01pm on the 14th 2 days before her due date and i’m a FTM i wasn’t expecting her to come until 41 weeks honestly i thought i was gonna have to be doing those things for at least a few days but i never drank raspberry tea or any of that

Sex, walks, dancing, yoga ball & squats :)

How're we dealing with bump comments

People keep commenting on how big im getting and dont get me wrong it's definitely clear im pregnant now (22+5) but people keep making comments and I have some prior body issues I was still working on when I fell pregnant so hearing things like 'youre getting so big!' Even when meant harmlessly can be quite hard for me to hear even if I do know i am getting bigger and am comfortable with the changes happening since I know it means baby is just getting bigger and my body is working with that. Just feels like the amount of unsolicited comments made is insane especially as a FTM with no prior experience with pregnancy

Pregnancy Pillows

Hiya! I’m a first time mum and was wondering when anyone started using a pregnancy pillow? I’m currently 24 weeks and i don’t have one, is it something to invest in asap?

What all do you have ready?

I am soooo excited for my boy to get here! Our nursery is pretty much finished. I havent started washing clothes yet. Ive been cleaning my house like crazy lol I havent packed my hospital bag or the diaper bag yet. I am 32 weeks and 3 days. I love to be prepared and honestly just so excited. Wondering what all you girls have done already/when you will be starting stuff etc.

What’s your average screen time on your phone?

Sometimes my phone tells me my weekly average of screen time on it and it always makes me feel shitty - what are your guys averages like?

I genuinely didn’t think I was on my phone THAT much so seeing it is a bit of a woah time to reduce it moment for me (and yes I know it’s ironic that I’m on it right now)
